Time Nick Message 11:01 Mordazy ok, bye! 11:01 Mordazy and so on, and so on... 11:01 Mordazy after opening hours you can reserve items available, so they wait for you next day 11:00 Mordazy the other way of reserving: 11:00 Mordazy and you can reserve 3 to 50 items depending on how many times you didn`t pick reserved item on time 10:59 Mordazy if item is`nt picked up, system sends email / sms to another member 10:58 Mordazy when the item is returned, system send email or sms to the first member in the queue 10:57 Mordazy if the item is not available at the moment, you can reserve it and system tells you your position in queue 10:56 Mordazy other useful feature in Mateusz is dividing reservation into two groups 10:50 Mordazy guess I`m boring again 10:50 Mordazy ehhh 10:49 Mordazy you know, I wanted Koha badly, because if I managed to set it up the way I wanted, I wouldn`t have to beg anybody for simpliest things as it is now with Aleph. 10:38 Mordazy aww, sorry again 10:35 Mordazy but I`m quite alone here and there`s possibility that I wouldn`t make it with implementing it the way my lib managers want :( 10:33 Mordazy I love Koha, the freedom, flexibility and support 10:31 Mordazy and it`s hard for me to say this, but it`s everything Koha yet has to become. 10:30 Mordazy and adding new features is his hobby :) 10:28 Mordazy he`s been working on it since 2001 or 2002 10:28 Mordazy you know, this program is author`s beloved baby 10:26 Mordazy so it controls the time and so on 10:26 Mordazy any member can surf half an hour per day 10:26 Mordazy part of the author`s library is an internet cafe, free for members 10:25 kados very cool, what does it do? 10:25 Mordazy internet cafe control program :) 10:24 Mordazy what else... 10:24 kados wow! 10:24 Mordazy resizing 10:24 Mordazy for direct scanning and resising book covers 10:23 kados scanning? 10:23 Mordazy it even has its own scanning module 10:23 Mordazy useful features... in cataloging for example it was a table with foreign characters accessible by a click 10:20 Mordazy and also not very hardware - demanding 10:20 kados yep 10:20 Mordazy so it`s fast, very fast 10:20 kados ahh ... 10:20 Mordazy no, it has client applications connecting to mysql server 10:19 kados Mordazy: is the system web-based? 10:19 toins kados: ... ok... 10:19 kados but I agree it would be good to maintain such a list 10:19 kados toins: I think people have been frustrated in the past because such a list was never used by the developers 10:18 toins perhaps it should be good to create a page on the wiki to list all of feature which it could be good to include into koha 10:17 toins ok 10:17 Mordazy but it virtually had EVERYTHING. 10:17 toins Mordazy: could you give a list of these useful features ? 10:17 kados (the three above I admit, are poor in Koha, but we haven't had a library sponsor them so it hasn't been improved yet) 10:17 Mordazy can`t give them, I saw program once for a couple of hours 10:17 Mordazy many small, but VERY useful things 10:16 Mordazy - much better acquisitions and cataloging modules 10:15 Mordazy - very sophisticated member / staff policy 10:14 Mordazy - branch separation. Koha has problem with it 10:14 kados Mordazy: could you give some examples? 10:13 Mordazy kados: yes, MUCH more. 10:13 Mordazy especially that I have to learn almost everything needed to customize Koha the way I want 10:13 kados (Mateusz has more features than koha!?) 10:12 Mordazy 1) Time. We have 8 months tops to migrate. I can`t guarantee that I will be able to make Koha as usable as Mateusz is right out of the box. 10:10 Mordazy kados: a couple of various reasons 10:10 kados Mordazy: but I would like more information at some point about why you would choose something built by one guy over an international project 10:09 kados Mordazy: any contribution is greatly appreciated :-) 10:09 kados sure 10:07 Mordazy free time = spare time :) 10:06 Mordazy anyway, unfortunately it seems that Koha and related thing will have to be considered as my free time project, not a job activity.... 10:05 Mordazy we`ll see 10:05 Mordazy I`ll give him the what I translate 10:05 kados or maybe he did, just with the default tempaltes 10:04 Mordazy well 10:04 kados it would be much more efficient :/ 10:04 kados too bad he didn't use the PO method of translation 10:01 Mordazy right now I`m translating documentation for the guy who localized 2.2.4 and helps me with it 10:00 Mordazy not to mention there`s a queue :) 09:59 Mordazy but don`t know how much will it take 09:59 Mordazy yeah 09:58 kados Mordazy: but could you translate the OPAC first? 09:58 Mordazy okay 09:58 kados Mordazy: I will send you the other file 09:58 Mordazy kados: is it in another file or npl_po.po contains all? 09:55 kados Mordazy: yes, you can translate the librarian interface the same way 09:49 Mordazy I thought it`s OPAC only 09:49 Mordazy ah 09:42 Mordazy it`s called Mateusz by the way 09:41 Mordazy http://www.bemowo.e-bp.pl/bemowo/ini.php?str=tabelka&katalog=3 09:41 Mordazy and this is opac fot that other ILS.. 09:39 Mordazy by the way, can I translate librarian interface the same way? 09:38 Mordazy okay :) 09:35 kados Mordazy: you install poedit, then open the file I sent you using poedit 09:16 Mordazy ? 09:14 kados Mordazy: it will make it easier to translate 09:14 Mordazy heh :) 09:13 kados Mordazy: Mordazy sorry it's http://www.poedit.org/ 09:12 Mordazy kados: how to use that http://poedit.com? 09:09 Mordazy but I can`t deny the facts :( 09:09 Mordazy I wanted Koha badly 09:08 Mordazy sorry 09:08 Mordazy ehh 09:06 Mordazy however, its implementation would be much faster than Kohas 09:04 Mordazy 3) athe interface is rather childish and not very readable 09:03 Mordazy 2) he will not make any custom changes for users, unless all users need it or agree 09:02 Mordazy 1) it`s a program of one author, and he won`t publish the source code, so we`re stuck with him 09:01 Mordazy but it has some drawbacks for me: 09:01 Mordazy it has everything, including internet cafe control and scanning and resizing covers 08:59 Mordazy I would say even: overloaded with features 08:59 Mordazy it`s fast and loaded with features 08:58 Mordazy I`ve seen it in action 08:58 Mordazy what do you think about that other program? 08:58 Mordazy OK 08:58 kados Mordazy: sent 08:54 kados k ... thanks 08:54 Mordazy kados: mail the files to mordazy at poczta.onet.pl 08:54 kados I"ll send you the files 08:54 kados ok, what's your email? 08:52 Mordazy kados: why not, but it would depend on time I had 08:51 kados ahh, I see 08:50 kados (have you seen opac.liblime.com before?) 08:50 kados you would be the author of the polish translation of opac.liblime.com :-) 08:50 kados Mordazy: I mean a translation of the npl template ... I can send you the files if you're willing 08:49 kados Mordazy: yes, but not for the npl template 08:49 Mordazy however it`s been heavily customized 08:49 Mordazy I`m working on polish version od 2.2.4 08:49 Mordazy kados: there already is a translation 08:48 kados Mordazy: if I send you a couple of files, could you translate them? 08:48 kados Mordazy: would you be interested in helping with a polish translation of Koha? 08:47 Mordazy http://www.bemowo.e-bp.pl/bemowo/makowe.php 08:47 Mordazy yes, here you are 08:47 Mordazy he wrote it because he hated their old ILS 08:47 kados got a URL? 08:47 Mordazy it`s a one man`s program 08:46 kados Mordazy: free but not open source? 08:46 dewey i heard which one was that? :-) 08:46 kados which one? 08:44 Mordazy very strong competition to Koha, free, but not open source 08:44 Mordazy we`ve got an alternative 08:43 Mordazy probably Koha will not be our next ILS :( 08:42 Mordazy I`m sad :( 08:42 Mordazy hi kados, hi owen 08:42 owen Hi kados, Mordazy 08:41 kados morning owen 07:57 owen Looks like it was a quiet night in #koha 03:35 toins hi all 02:33 btoumi hi all 02:07 dewey hello, osmoze 02:07 osmoze hello 13:11 Mordazy bye 12:43 Mordazy anybody here?
